i heart john coltrane
I love John Coltrane, even if he looks like a 70s movie assassin in this pic. Do you love John Coltrane? All of these people love John Coltrane enough to have written tracks about him.
These are some of my favorite Coltrane tributes. Grab this compilation even if you've got some of them, especially if you haven't heard Carmello Garcia's hot latin jazz 7" single "Trane", or Clifford Jordan's beautiful "John Coltrane" (written by bassist Bill Lee), or Argentinian Alberto Favero's first movement of his orchestral "Suite Trane". Thanks again to the blogsphere - ileoxumare, Orgy In Rhythm, Office Naps and pharaohs-dance - for some of these tracks.
01. Primer Movimiento (from 'Suite Trane') - Alberto Favero
02. John Coltrane – Clifford Jordan
03. Searchin' the Trane - Bobby Hutcherson
04. Trane – Carmello Garcia
05. Prayer/Waltz For John Coltrane - John Klemmer
06. Spirits of Trane - Freddie Hubbard
07. One for Trane - Art Blakey
08. The Moontrane - Woody Shaw
09. Coltrane's View - Eddie Harris
10. Five for Trane - Sonny Fortune
11. Traces of Trane - Ensemble Al-Salaam
12. How Long Has Trane Been Gone - Jayne Cortez

Just thought I'd mention the great "John Coltrane" cut on Dwight Tribble (think Andy Bey Leon Thomas) on his S.Cal Horace Tappscot inspired scene on CD "Living Water".Great if you dig Tribe/Pharoahs sound.Also in same vein with some players who were in Pan Afrika Orchestra (Nimbus West-check clips) is Ghasem Batumuntu who's new Coltrane tiled spiritual jazz can be heard at CD Baby.Great stuff.

It probably doesn't count as a tribute, but let me also mention The Dream Syndicate's "John Coltrane Stereo Blues" which is one of their finest moments...
This is beautiful. I've followed your blog for a quite a number of years and never left a post but it's been a wonder to listen "through your ears" and discover. Thank you for opening up a door to a world of music to me. Thank you.
